Each time we make this shift and choose happiness, we experience a miracle. Our mind shifts from fearful delusions and reconnects to our truth, which is love. Creating these shifts requires a dedicated commitment to choosing love.

We're not really brought up in a culture where we believe we're meant to be happy, that peace is our birthright. It's not what we're taught; quite the opposite, actually. With all the expectations and the negative stories going on in the world, we have a lot to overcome.

The moment you accept that there's a guidance system supporting you, then you experience a new sense of freedom and peace.

Forgiveness isn't about letting the other person off the hook - it's about releasing ourselves.

Repeating a new behavior is what makes change stick.

The issue is that if you hold onto the resentment against yourself, you're just going to recreate that destructive pattern in different forms because unconsciously it's still a belief system that limits you.

You can't make people be or do what you want. All you can do is be unapologetic about what you want and let others show up however they can.
